Active Ingredients:

Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid):

Most living creatures has the ability to produce their own essential need of Vitamin C, however some exception happen in cases like humans and apes, they lack the potential of producing Vitamin C, therefore they depend on their diet supplements for their daily needs.
This essential Vitamin is highly needed in the production and formation of Collagen in connective tissues; these are fibers that have strength and flexibility in it.
Collagen is produced in different percentage according to the needs; therefore it varies from skin, mucous membrane, teeth or even bones.
The main ingredient of Vitamin C, is the Ascorbic acid, which exists in two forms, L-enantiomer, and D-enantiomer, the latter, has no effect on the body, the two forms are mirror image of the same chemical formula, however only the L-enantiomer is of importance for the D-enantiomer has no biological activities.
The importance of ascorbic acid is that it is involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters, such as Dopamine and Serotonin; these neurotransmitters are responsible in delivering signals from the site of stimulus to the brain, through a mesh of nerves. Along with its role in neurotransmitter synthesis, Vitamin C act as an antioxidant, which removes all oxygen free radicals produced during physical or emotional stress or even during infection. It is necessary in the process of iron absorption and reducing the levels of lead in blood. Vitamin C, is heat labile and water soluble, therefore, the human body cannot store it or retain it for long periods, therefore it must be refilled daily.

Riboflavin:

Also known as, vitamin B2 is an easily absorbed, water-soluble micronutrient with a key role in maintaining human health. Like the other B vitamins, it supports energy production by aiding in the metabolizing of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Vitamin B2 is also required for red blood cell formation and respiration, antibody production, and for regulating human growth and reproduction. It is essential for healthy skin, nails, hair growth and general good health, including regulating thyroid activity. Riboflavin also helps in the prevention or treatment of many types of eye disorders, including some cases of cataracts. It may assist bloodshot, itching or burning eyes and abnormal sensitivity to light. Light, cooking water, sulfa drugs, estrogen or alcohol, can easily destroy Riboflavin.

Niacin:

Vitamin B3, also called niacin, is one of eight water-soluble B vitamins. It helps the body to convert carbohydrates into glucose (sugar), which is “burned” to produce energy. It is essential in the breakdown of fats and protein. plays an important role in maintaining muscle tone along the digestive tract and promoting the health of the nervous system, skin, hair, eyes, mouth, and liver. Niacin plays an important role in ridding the body of toxic and harmful chemicals. It also helps the body make various sex and stress-related hormones in the adrenal glands and other parts of the body. It is effective in improving circulation and reducing cholesterol levels in the blood.

Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxine Hydrochloride):

Vitamins B12, B6, and B9 (folic acid) work closely together to control blood levels of the amino acid homocysteine. Elevated levels of this substance appear to be linked to heart disease. Plus, vitamin B6 is essential for normal brain development and function, participating in the process of making important brain chemicals called neurotransmitters. Pyridoxine is an especially important vitamin for maintaining healthy nerve and muscle cells and it aids in the production of DNA and RNA, the body’s genetic material. It is necessary for proper absorption of vitamin B12 and for the production of red blood cells and cells of the immune system. Pyridoxine has also been called the “woman’s vitamin” because it may help relieve symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). It plays a good part in saving the nervous systems from a lot of damaged caused by powerful drugs such as Isoniazid and Ethionamide,

Folate (as Folic Acid):

Folic acid or Vitamin B9 is crucial for proper brain function and plays an important role in mental and emotional health It aids in the production of DNA and RNA, the body’s genetic material, it is especially important during periods of high growth, such as infancy, adolescence and pregnancy. Folic acid also works closely together with vitamin B12 to regulate the formation of red blood cells and to help iron function properly in the body, there are some evidence that deficiency in B9 and B12 can lead to emotional disturbance, probably because of toxic effect of homocysteine which is an amino acid broken down by Folate and Vitamin B12. Wise consumption of B complex vitamins can prevent you from cardiovascular problems and anemia.

Vitamin B12 (as Cyanocobalamin):

Like most of the B complex vitamin helps in formation of RBCs and maintain healthy nervous system. The vitamin contains cobalt, therefore it is also called cobalamine. B12 is also important in maintaining the nervous system. Nerves are surrounded by an insulating fatty sheath comprised of a complex protein called myelin. B12 plays a vital role in the metabolism of fatty acids essential for the maintenance of myelin. Prolonged B12 deficiency can lead to nerve degeneration and irreversible neurological damage.

Relora™:

Relora is a combination of plant extracts proven to combat stress and anxiety. It is a modified form of Magnolia officinalis and Phellodenoron amurense. This is an herbal formula that has shown in multiple studies to promote relaxation and high self-esteem feelings. It also showed some positive results in lowering cortisol levels that is highly responsible for weight gain.

It simply works by binding to stress receptors in the nervous system to promote relaxation and feelings of well being while ignoring receptors such as benzodiazepine associated with sedation, Valium and Prozac are drugs that doesn’t work on such differentiation.

Magnolia and Phellodendron:

Magnolia officinalis has been used widely in eastern herbal medicine, mainly in the control of stress and anxiety. The plant is widely present in the Far East, especially in the rain forests of China. Japanese researchers have managed to isolate and identify two different extracts from Magnolia officinalis these extracts were found to have significant impact on the central nervous system. The beautiful finding is that the herb provides these relaxing effects without experiencing any sedating side effect. Magnolia officinalis has been found to contain some anti depressant.
Phellodendron amurense, or what is known as the Amur Corktree, is a tree that grows in northeastern China and Japan. The important part of this plant is the bark, which has an important effect and a reliable history of being an anti-inflammatory and an antibacterial. A combination of magnolia with Phellodendron has been developed, to maintain normal levels of cortisol and DHEA hormones in the body, in order to control stress and its symptoms. Both plant extracts work by binding the stress receptors in the CNS and neglect the sedation receptors. This helps in producing and promoting relaxation and good feelings of high self-esteem.

Suntheanine®:

Suntheanine has produced wide confidence in its capability of defying stress and promoting an alert state of relaxation with no drowsiness effect. Extra studies have showed that suntheanine could be used to facilitate and improve sleeping, reducing premenstrual syndrome symptoms (PMS). Extra rate of concentration and reduction in negative side effects of caffeine, better learning performance and even a much active immune system are all benefits that you can obtain from this ingredient. Suntheanine has been awarded in 1998 of “Food Ingredient Research Award” and in 2000; it was awarded as “Best New Product of 2000”.

L-Theanine:

This amino acid is commonly present in Tea leaves, especially the green tea, infact the distinctive taste of the green tea actually because of L-Theanine. Despite the fact that the Japanese were the earliest nations to use green tea in their traditional medicine, the isolation of L-Theanine was never isolated before 1950. L-Theanine has a calming and relaxing effect because it prevents the effect of caffeine, this is a sound explanation of why green tea doesn’t have the same alerting effect as the red tea. On the contrary, green tea provides a calm and relaxing effect. L-Theanine produces an effect similar to meditation by facilitating the production of Alpha waves that affects the brain and delivers a relaxing and well being feelings. There are some evidences that L-Theanine can improve learning and memory abilities, regulate blood pressure and even reduce tumor sizes.

L-5 Hydroxytryptophan (Griffonia simplicifolia):

5-HTP is an intermediate product that is produced during the conversion of Tryptophan to Serotonin; it increases the levels of serotonin present, which gives positive effects on emotional status. Appetite regulation, melatonin production and healthy sleep cycle are all positive signs of serotonin production. 5-HTP can be naturally obtained from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia.
